The him proyiding for marriage Ii.

The bill providing for marriage IL
censes has passed the house and now in
the hands of the governor. The princi-
pal points of the bill require all persons
contemplating marriage to first procure
a license from the comfy clerk, who is
directed to grant the same if the parties
are of proper age and otherwise compe-
tent as may appear by their answers
under oath to the questions he may
put to them. Taking into considera-
ton the difficulty which people in the
newer counties may have in reaching
the county clerk. provision is made for
such to obtain license by applying
to notary public or any person auth
orized to administer oaths. The fee to
the county clerk is fifty cents, and the
revenue these officials will derive from
the new system will be something ma
erial.
